SMU's Tackling Machine Kobe Wilson: 117-Tackle Leader with Pick-Six Flair
In the 2024 season, senior LB Kobe Wilson dominated for SMU, starting all 14 games with a team-high 117 tackles, 6 TFLs, 3 sacks, and 2 INTs including an 82-yard pick-six that earned him ACC Linebacker of the Week twice and All-ACC Second Team honors[1][2][4][7]. This relentless, undersized (6-0, 225) enforcer thrives on doubters' fuel, delivering elite pass-rush grades early in his career and big-play intensity that screams NFL upside—perfect for teams needing a sideline-to-sideline leader with proven reliability and zero injury red flags[6][7].
